Re: Brocade 4900 upgrade issue

1. FTP server does not have to be in the same subnet as the switch. It just needs to be accessible over lan without a firewall.

2. I copied the firmware folder to my home directory ;ie;/home/ponnappa/v5.3.1a. By default FTP directory point to my home directory upon my login.

3. BTL_FCA_COR:admin> firmwaredownload Server Name or IP Address: 10.160.41.173 FTP User Name: ponnappa File Name: v5.3.1a FTP Password: Verifying the input parameters ... Checking system settings for firmwaredownload... You can run firmwaredownloadstatus to get the status of this command.
